Indiana at New York

The Knicks are in a do or die situation, as they stare down the barrel of a 3-1 series deficit. While not much went right for the Knicks in Indiana, we did see what happens when the Knicks shoot the ball well in Game Two where they won 105-79. The Pacers defend very well, but not so well as to be the reason the Knicks shot 56-158 in the two games in Indiana, or 35.4%, and 11-39 from behind the arc for 28.2%. Maybe this will sound too simple, but if the knicks shot 39.8% from the field and 38% from deep, and made four foul shots, the games are even in Indiana. The Knicks were defended well, and credit to Indiana for some of that, but New York missed so many open 3's that they have knocked down all season. Coming home, I expect to see them shoot much better. If they do, they are going be the team winning by double-digits this time. The Knicks are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 at home, and the Pacers have covered just one of the last five here. The Knicks aren't done yet, so play on New York.
